Delhi may become first state to have Walmart, Tesco stores


Delhi may soon become the first city in the country to have global retail chains like Walmartand Tesco, with the city government all set bring a bill in the Winter session of assembly beginning Tuesday to remove hurdles in ensure "effective" implementation of FDI in multi-brand retail. 

The city government will bring an amendment to theAgricultural Produce Marketing Committee (APMC) Act for facilitating direct purchase of produce from farmers by multi-national retailers. 

The amendment to the existing legislation will allow direct connectivity between retailers and farmers. 

As per the existing provision, farmers cannot sell their produce directly to retailers as it has to be routed through the wholesale market which are mostly under the grip of middlemen. 

Officials said the amendment to APMC Act was required to "break monopoly" of the wholesale traders so that retailers can directly buy agricultural produce from farmers. 

To break the monopoly of Azadpur mandi, considered one of the largest fruit and vegetable wholesale markets in Asia, the government is also considering allowing private market yards for marketing of farm produce. 

The officials said the amendment bill has already been drafted and it will be examined by the Cabinet in a day or two. 

"The bill is likely to be tabled in the Winter session of the House," said Mukesh Sharma, Parliamentary Secretary to Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit. 

Dikshit, who has been strongly backing the Centre's decision to allow FDI in multi-brand retail, said it will be implemented in the city by early next year. 

Officials said government was considering setting up a wholesale market in Tikri Khud area in West Delhi where it has around 72 acres of land. They said government is likely to allow foreign retail giants to set up shop in the area.

    Hi Bro,


    Hot! That was HOT! Glued to the Delhi may become first state to have Walmart, Tesco stores your proficiency and style!


    Then I started making a lovely old website, and had to switch to Small, to stay afloat. Then I realised - boom - I need to pay for Small. It adds up...an unexpected cost. The guys at customer service have been wonderful, even covered my bills until we sort this little conundrum out. AWS Training USA





    Great effort, I wish I saw it earlier. Would have saved my day :)


    Kind Regards,

C Graph implementation with adjacency list representation using structures: Data Structure Tutorial 1

Image
This is a quick tutorial for implementing graph data structure with adjacency list representation. Once I was  looking on the web to have a simple introductory tutorial on graphs, but unfortunately couldn’t find one  simple enough. So I decided to write this. In the adjacency list representation, è All the vertices are stored in an array of structure containing ‘data’ and ‘link’ fields. è The linked chains represent the edges of a vertex with its neighbors. In the figure, there are 6 vertices, represented by the array of length 6, and the chains represent the edges. Below is another example: Let us first define the structure of a vertex in a graph. struct vertex {     int vertexKey;     struct edge *edgePtr; }vertex; The vertexKey is the data field of the vertex, and edgePtr is the edge pointer, declared next. The graph can be declared as: struct vertex graph[10]; int vertexCount=0; Here...

Interview Of An Indian Top Coder : Rudradev Basak

When I (Anil Kishore) started taking part in algorithmic programming contests, for more than two years, it was just me, lot of problems, very few algorithms, my ideas and my Java codes. With that, I would have probably been still a green rated coder, working for a software company in Bangalore after moving between two or three places, still in search of the right things to do. But why ? Problems, Algorithms, my Ideas and my Codes.. what else I need ? This is where many Indian coders make mistake. Almost two years after joining TopCoder (TC), I started interacting with fellow coders, knowing more about them, reading lots of others codes, being active in forums and part of the wonderful community. That was the crucial part of my career so far. TC has some interviews of foreign coders and they are very interesting to read. Knowing more about our own Indian coders will be more fun, especially for beginners to get inspired. This is the least I can contribute to the wonderful community tha...
